Senator Webber asked and was granted unanimous consent to make a statement and moved that the statement be printed in the Journal. The motion prevailed. Senator Webber’s statement is as follows: Mr. President, this amendment would protect babies with Down syndrome. Every life is precious and should be treated as such. Individuals with Down syndrome enrich our society and add value to our state. They should have a right to live and thrive just like anyone else. My amendment would prevent medical professionals from performing an abortion post-fetal viability because the baby may have Down syndrome. I ask for support for this amendment.
